Thanx for the advice on the beaker cleaning. I was using a "new" beaker for my drops and I now have a cleaning method that well seams to work well for me.
I now wash the beaker after EVERY use. I wash 2 times with Bob Ami and then once with the Alconox.
My beaker stays pristine when dropping I am having NO sticking and my gold powder slides of of the beaker ( like it does in Streetips videos weeeee )
I am hopefully finishing up my Sparkly spud project today and will reclaim my gold from it. I had originally intended on re-melting my first melt because it looked so bad . . however after more consideration thought it had character and am going to leave it as it is.
O and when I did the potato melt I did make a nice burnt surface in it before placing the gold in it. I am well aware that molten metal and water do not mix.
Thanx
